For example, [[VideoGame/TheSilverCase Sumio Kodai]], [[VideoGame/FlowerSunAndRain Sumio Mondo]] and [[VideoGame/KillerIsDead Mondo Zappa]], or [[VideoGame/Killer7 Travis Bell]] and [[VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes Travis Touchdown]].

If you were to take DavidLynch, QuentinTarantino and a Luchador (latter runs on ItMakesSenseInContext) and lock them in a room surrounded by Sci-Fi movies, anime and Creator/AndyWarhol paintings, you'd get something quite close to the inside of Goichi Suda's mind.

Goichi Suda, or Suda 51 as he's better known, is one of the most {{Mind Screw}}ing game designers out there. He's the head of Grasshopper Manufacture and is known for making games which create a unique, if slightly/extremely unsettling, experience.
